So can I trash this !@#$? Or it is useful for something else?

Comment by gamedisciple

A nice read but not part of the quest line so it can be deleted without worry.

The unholy death the book speak of is when Arthas, now beeing the lich king, killed Uther. He needed the urn Uther had, which held Terenas Menethil III ashes (Arthas father) which Arthas needed to transport the remains of Kel'Thuzad.

Comment by Gorezhul

His name brought light to darkest Azeroth.

His valor tore the walls of mis'ry down.

The Silver Hand would ne'er do better more.

Than give the world the knight who'd give himself.

His fame was not that which he sought to grow.

Nor was the lordship over his own kind.

Instead he chose to fight for Lordaeron.

To hope his kin would have to fight no more.

The tragic tale of this most holy knight.

Will never end with his unholy death.

We honor him, and shall give him thanks!

Uther always shall know glory and light!

Uther is universally known as the Lightbringer but he hasn't been always addressed as such. In fact it was General Turalyon who got the idea of this nickname after seeing the inspiration that the Grand Master of the Silver Hand had on his men. When he was charged by Khadgar and Uther as Supreme Commander of the Alliance he responded:“And I thank you, Uther the Lightbringer,” Turalyon replied, and he saw the older Paladin’s eyes widen at the new title. “For so shall you be known henceforth, in honor of the Holy Light you brought us this day.” Uther bowed, clearly pleased, then turned without another word and walked back toward the other knights of the Silver Hand, no doubt to tell them their marching orders.

Uther to Arthas quotes:"Remember, Arthas, we are paladins. Vengeance cannot be a part of what we must do. If we allow our passions to turn to bloodlust, then we will become as vile as the Orcs.""You are not my king yet, boy! Nor would I obey that command even if you were!""Your father ruled this land for fifty years, and you've ground it to dust in a matter of days.""The urn holds your father's ashes, Arthas! What, were you hoping to $%^& on them one last time before you left his kingdom to rot?""I dearly hope that there's a special place in Hell waiting for you, Arthas."

Apparently, For the Light! is written in Common, the language of the Alliance. My druid was Alliance and now Horde has this book and cannot read it.

Can be transferred to Horde via the Auction houses, and read by them in orcish too.

Don't be so quick to delete this item. There is an achieve to read a certain number of books. Read it, then trash it. Don't forget to turn all the pages. You can find other books in places like the SM Library.

While on the flight master to do the quest, don't try to click the book if u willing to read. cause it will skip the reading and convert it to the quest item as if u done reading it.
